The stay at Phil's house was an amazing experience. It is situated very close to the Royal Palace (5 min) and walking distance to Yaowarat road (cca 20 min is a leisurely pace). The room is very clean and despite its small size I did not feel calustrophobic at all, even with the two big suitcases we had (staircases are steep to keep that in mind though). The room is excellent value. However the biggest gem is the Thai auntie who is managing the place: she is the sweetest and most helpful lady ever! Although she does not speak much English, we always managed to make ourselves understood and she even helped us organize a taxi to the airport when otherwise it would have been rather expensive.
